THE LORD IS MY MUSE

THE LORD IS MY MUSE* 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Lord is my muse; I shall not despair. 

He giveth me inspiration; he leadeth me to magical waters.

He restoreth my creativity; he float-eth ideas in my mind, for poetry’s sake.

Although I write in the early morning hours and darkness of night, I will remain tireless; for thou art with

My Own North Star

My Own North Star

A quiet hum, a gentle breeze,
No urgent calls, no need to please.
The world outside can spin and sway,
I find my peace in my own way.

No echoing steps upon the floor,
No voice to seek beyond my door.
Just silent thoughts, a mind at ease,
Unburdened by dependencies.

The path I walk, it's mine alone,
No guiding hand,

Hug the Bard Song

I wasn't truly attuned to the Bard
Who tried to show cosmic significance.
On the dark moonlit forest's stage, he starred.
His Bardic thoughts defying arrogance.

I met the night Bard while he was singing
In chorus with Oaks of the magic grove.
Sprouting with seedlings was his beginning.
Raised in the forest, his true treasure trove.

This bounty lies protected by wet

Fun Marathon Poetry Inspired By Robert Frost

Two roads diverged on the marathon course
And obviously I couldn’t travel both
And neither were they clearly marked
So I took the one I thought was best
And now I’m far behind the rest

Life Is

For the fortunate
Life begins with love and pain
And so it continues 
For those who walk a worthy path
Love and pain
Love and pain
Love and pain
Each ever increasing, 
Building, 
Combining 
Through powerful struggle
To form precious art
Like that made from stained glass and fire
We can only hope 
That our love 
Can burn 
So strong and so bright
That something

Falling with grace

It doesn’t fall because it wants to
it falls because it must.
As it falls, it sways, side to side,
almost lowering with grace
till it reaches the ground.

A reminder to us to slow down.
It’s okay to pause, to breathe, to drift.
If we let go and fall, we’ll be okay!
we’ll still blow in the wind’s breeze,
still make our small

BROKEN WINGS

In this time of political upheaval where every day 
by some bad or sad news we’re blindsided… 
a time that being woke has caused friendships to deteriorate…
and our country to be divided.

Where every day people who believe in equality, inclusion and compassion
suffer their share of arrows and slings…
It seems to me we are now a

When Twilight Comes

When twilight comes,
be morn or eve,
a time when cares 
and fears take leave,
when the sun arises,
when the sun does set,
when the trials of the world
have not come yet,
nor will they you beset,
when ferns and flowers
are tender with dew,
when dreams 
that you've dreamt
become alive and new,
when the stir of a breeze
and a rustle in the trees
become

Love Is Kind

there

when

where

loneliness
to
unwind
when
love speaks
gently
then
i
shall
find
that
love
is 
kind

Painter duo

Two painters
Two generations
Two minds
But one goal – to observe and to paint

Vincent’s Arles
20th February 1888
He left as snow fell in Paris
Seeking warmth, bright light and colour
Provence beckoned, Arles awaited

Cold welcome soon turned warm
Vincent keen to explore
Keen to advance painting style
Bold colours, dynamic brush strokes

May day and the yellow house his base
Hopes of a collective studio
Daring

The Promise He Had

They said he couldn't the path was too steep,
But dreams don't belong to the ones who sleep.
With fire in his heart and a storm in his eyes,
He walked through the shadows, aiming for skies.

A man on a mission, his purpose was deep,
A promise to honor, a vow he would keep.
He stumbled and fell, time after

The Journey Within

I carry the weight of unspoken names,
ancestors carved in the marrow of me.
Chains once bound them, yet their spirit still walks,
pressing my steps with a rhythm of fire.

The mirror does not reflect only my face,
it holds centuries of silence and struggle.
Songs in languages stolen yet remembered,
rise in my chest like thunder after rain.

I walk between
